[ subject ] [ author ] Hi, freebsd-security. I have FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE. When I try to change user's password (via passwd) I recieve the following: passwd: entry http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-bsd-osx-passwd-pam_chauthtok-error-in-service-module/ inconsistent passwd: pam_chauthtok(): error in service module passwd: in pam_sm_chauthtok(): pw_copy() failed and password stays unchanged. There are no other errors in the authorization system at all. Contents of /etc/pam.d stayed unchanged (compared to https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-security/2005-March/002771.html /usr/src/pam.d) Permissions: /etc/group 644 root:wheel /etc/passwd 644 root:wheel /etc/master.passwd 600 root:wheel I have /usr/ports/security/pam_mysql installed, but this problem (as I remember) was here from the beginning, long before I installed pam_mysql. Because of need I created pam.conf with some opts. But if I remove it and reboot the problem persists. What could go wrong? -- Best regards, Tarasov Oleg mailto:subscriber at osk.com.ua Previous message: RUXCON 2005 Call for Papers Next message: PAM fails to change user password Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] More information about the freebsd-security mailing list
